Binary Drivers

Binary drivers are provided by some Linux distributions including WHQL Certified drivers.

64-bit versions of Windows Vista and newer (this currently includes Windows Server 2008, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2) require the drivers to be digitally signed to load.

If your distribution does not provide binary drivers for Windows, you can use the package from the Fedora Project. These drivers are digitally signed, and will work on 64-bit versions of Windows:
